Wilson, who has 58 goals in 148 Cherries appearances since joining from Coventry five years ago, said: “We’ve improved in all areas since I initially joined the club but there’s still a long way to go.

“While AFC Bournemouth may be known as a smaller club, we’ve got some really big ambitions here.

“Everyone is pulling in the same direction towards those targets and goals.

“I feel like, as an individual, my game is constantly improving here at the club. I want to continue that progress and reach even higher targets. I’m really excited about what the future holds.”

Wilson, who has three caps, is one of a number of Eddie Howe’s players who has been interesting other clubs this summer.
